Hearken ye unto me my people, and give ear unto me, O my people: for a [a]Law shall proceed from me, and I will bring forth my judgment for the light of the people.

My [b]righteousness is near: my salvation goeth forth, and mine [c]arm shall judge the people: the isles shall wait for me, and shall trust unto mine arm.

Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath: for the [d]heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment, and they that dwell therein, shall perish in like manner: but my salvation shall be forever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished.
